Thanks for the ideal. The dries site has an FC4 version that isn't 
working, and dag doesn't have one for FC4, but I just installed the 
fc3 version, and then ran ntop, and setup the passoword, and then 
started it as a service and it seems to work.
http://localhost:3000.

I've used ntop on previous version RH9, FC1, and FC2, but hadn't 
tried installing it on an FC4 machine.

Thanks.
